  1. Mesh Basket In Neck

    lclark replied to lclark's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Did they sedate you? They said I wouldn't be put out but I would be 'fuzzy'. Of course if you were crying you weren't fully sedated, but were you fuzzy? Did you feel the pain through the fuzzy?

  2. Mesh Basket In Neck

    lclark posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    Has anyone else had a mesh basket inserted through their neck to catch blood clots? I met with the surgeon today and with a BMI of 62 I am at significantly increased risk of complications. Other than compression socks and blood thinners she wants to have the basket put in one week before and it would stay until a month after. If you have had this done how was your experience? The mesh basket aside today's visit and the possible complications is very sobering and have me a little freaked out.
